Paleo Pink Lemonade

It's sweltering hot here in Santa Fe, we're all living on pink lemonade. My mom's lemonade was sugary-sweet, however this refreshing recipe is sugar-free, using a natural zero carb sweetener. I don't use stevia after learning (what the Grocery Association doesn't want you to know) ...

Dark Chocolate Fudge, Easy & Healthy

My doctor requested an easy, healthy dark chocolate fudge. Well, here it is, luscious and so quick to make! If you're eating 75% chocolate thinking it's healthy, don't kid yourself.

Curried White Bean Dip, No Nightshades

I love this spicy homemade dip! It is filled with luscious flavor and healthy vitamins! Fresh veggies are a colorful and nutritious way to enjoy dips.

Julia Child never dreamed of a soufflé this easy! Just blend and bake, no egg whites to beat. And Ohhh! The flavor! Rich, creamy and yes, VERY chocolaty. When I served it, a hush came over the room - a good sign! I discovered that a blender makes a fine soufflé, so I put away my egg beater. This soufflé is not only ...

Paleo Sweet Potato Mini-Muffins

Today I had an irresistible craving for healthy muffins, not too sweet, with the rich flavor of sweet potatoes. I adore these for breakfast, snack, or dessert.

OK, this is trouble...a serious love affair with um - hazelnuts. Their deep, dark, rich flavor blends tantalizingly with chocolate.

Raspberry Chia Energy Bars

Whew! I'm still recovering from the shock of finding 3 high-fructose sweeteners in "healthy" chia bars at the Whole Foods check-out counter. Agave syrup, Brown rice syrup, and Apple juice concentrate are hidden sugars that destabilize metabolism. But not THESE bars! ...
